Review
'Brilliant...an incredibly compelling read.'- Gerry Ryan, RTE 2FM'Explosive... Heroin is the most shocking book of theyear.'- Sunday World

Product Description
Julie grew up in an inner city neighbourhood where she was exposed to crime and drugs from a young age. She started using heroin when she was 16 and by the time she was 18 she was a chronic addict. "Heroin" details how she spent years living on the streets of Dublin; dealing drugs and stealing to feed her habit. It is a snapshot of how a young girl became a victim of circumstances. It happened in Dublin, but it could have happened anywhere in the world. Her life was saved by a chance encounter with a drugs counsellor who brought her to first to London, and then to America where she de-toxed and slowly began to rebuild her life.
